Smokehole Canyon West Virginia


    
This is not really a veterinary post, but Smokehole Canyon is one of the best family canoe trips I've done. My children and I and a couple other families run this river near Petersburg, WV every Memorial Day Weekend. From beautiful scenery to a great canoe-only campsite, challenging hikes, a wonderful swimming hole, a cave, fresh spring and many class 2 rapids, this river has it all and is one of my kids' favorite family trips. Here is yours truly running "Landslide Rapid", the last major rapid before camp (where you don't want to flip and spill all your gear). Fortunately, the canoes have always made it through unscathed.
